  • What spring rate do I need?

    03 750 replacing front fork springs with racetech springs. I can not afford the emulators. What spring rate should I get? I am 6ft and weigh 220#. OK, a little more but I am dieting.

    Check the racetech site, they have a calculator. But I'd guess 1.0kg

          Thanks. Racetech recommended closest to .988. They sell .95 and 1.0. I was about to go with 9.5 but will do the 1.0. I don't think I am getting any slimmer anytime soon.
